Sayre, Oklahoma, artist Sarah Harless draws attention to the simpler ways of life, and the natural beauty of the western atmosphere provides a serene backdrop. “I like the more traditional ways of life and simplistic lifestyle when people lived off the land. We don't get time back, and it is vital to me to use my time wisely,” says the artist. “I think my artwork captures some of the old ways that are still part of a tradition and lifestyle from the earlier generations. There is an importance of the older ways of life that we seem to forget about today.”

Sarah pays tribute to the traditional beauty by photographing and painting the people, rain, livestock and nature that are at the center of the gifts God gives us.
